WITHOUT FACES
The Caribbean Literary & Cultural Center in Collaboration with Richie Richardson and CARIB, Presents WITHOUT FACES.
Opening reception on Saturday, June 6th from 2 to 5pm…closing celebration Saturday, June 20th. The keynote speaker will be Council member Kendall Stewart, chairman of the immigration council, New York City Council.
Without Faces is a collective exhibition, featuring artists of diverse heritage. The curator is Richie Richardson, the exhibit is now annualized and this is the third in a series, which coincides with the June celebration of National Caribbean American Heritage Month.
The exhibition brings together a group of eighteen talented artists. And all of the artists were asked to contribute works; they felt resonated with the theme “Without Faces.”
The story of immigration is universal; often marginalized and blamed for societies ills, they are the last to be praised or recognized for their work ethic, strong family ties and enterprise. Many of the works are vivid and personal accounts and observations that make a powerful visual commentary about the facelessness of the immigrant experience.
From Africa to Latin America from Europe the Caribbean and the United States, these are the artists who come together to give face to the faceless: Christopher Webster, Donna Dove, Elena Marrero, Elliot Bassman, Emmanuel Toribio, Herb Bennett, Ibrahima Diallo, James Mingo, Jennifer Booth, Laura West, Lincoln Perry, Lynn Bell, Matuschka, Omowale Morgan, Rachel Krause, Richie Richardson, Shaneika Marson, Sylvia Maier.
Everyone is invited to this eclectic celebration of love, life creativity and good energy. The artist is the social conscience of society and we all come together in solidarity, to bring attention to this very human and universal story. A story steeped in success, overcoming challenges and the pioneering spirit. Special thanks to Donna Fleming, coordinator of CLCC, Hollis Kam of CARIB, Lenny Mendez, Velda Johnson, Sharon Cundy & Marlene Cochrane.
